It’s no surprise that most diet plans don’t work for women—most health studies are based on men instead of women, so women have no choice but to follow plans that were created by and for men. The trouble is: women’s bodies don’t work the same way. Popular programs can actually make it harder for women to lose weight, because they can wreak havoc on a woman’s complex and delicate hormonal system.

New York Times bestselling author Dr. Sara Gottfried has spent her career demystifying hormones and helping patients improve their health with personalized medicine. In Women, Food, and Hormones, she presents the Gottfried Protocol, a science-based, road-tested plan designed to reset and balance your hormones and accelerate fat loss. Featuring a female-friendly fasting protocol and ketogenic diet that’s tailor-made for women, the Gottfried Protocol is designed to:

• Work with, not against, women’s hormones—unlike other keto plans.
• Improve detoxification and blood sugar levels while decreasing stress, hunger, and cravings.
• Target belly fat and reduce inflammation.
• Increase levels of key anti-aging hormones.

Complete with essential troubleshooting tips and more than 50 delicious and filling recipes, Women, Food, and Hormones is your all-in-one-guide to hormonal balance and a healthy new you.

her detailed deep study of hormones

so this is a really deep, heavy read. there are so many facts and stuff that it's hard to absorb any more information after 1 chapter. I learned some things. but most of it wasn't really that useful, because not everyone can go to her clinic. which seems like the only place where you could get any help out of the whole deal. maybe my brain just didn't comprehend all the mathematics of it. but it was so technical that it really didn't help me much.

Shoit me in the face with a baked potato

Don't get me wrong, I appreciate the information provided in this book. I certainly believe I can apply some of this in my everyday life. However, I can't with the extreme restriction, calculations of ratios and overall unrealistic approach to this plan. I would much rather do a round of whole30 as a hormonal reset because it is less restrictive and mathematical.

good ideas

plan to implement. easy to understand when you listen all the way through. great

Uses a Vegetarian style Keto diet to heal body.

I was confused by using a Keto diet to heal the body then has women switch to a Meratranean Diet for everday. Admits body will overtime need resets again in the future as you eat foods that cause gut imbalance to begin with. Disappointment in her direction. It felt trendy. Keto healsbecause of the low carbs, high fat and eating variety of meets, especially fish and red meats.
